Selling my much loved Tak FS-102 Flourite Doublet APO

Reason for selling is I just bought a Tak FS-128 :lol:

This scope is in excellent condition. few tiny paint chips but not noticable as per pics.

OTA & Dew Shield
Losmandy Dovetail Plate
Very High quality Astronomics tube mounting rings (over $100)
visual back to mount 2" diagonal and 1.25"

The case cost me $400 to get made. Its bomb proof and made by a company in melbourne who make cases for rock bands who ship gear all around country. Has cutouts in foam for diagonal and accessories.

This is a great visual and imaging scope. I have taken many images with it. I have attached a few in this post as samples of what it is capable of.

It was made in 2002 - You can always tell with Tak by the first two digits in the serial number - those give you the year, and then other numbers are the sequence from within that year. Although a lot of things are made one year, and then not actually sold to a customer for a year or more by Tak.
